Justin could do without the crazy techno music that played at the
moment the only thing he could think of was the woman giving him the
hot lap dance. Normally you weren't supposed to touch the dancer but
he was Justin Timberlake and if he wanted to touch her, he was more
than welcome to do that and much more. Lance looked over at the clock
that read 3:30 a.m. They had been gone since 8 that night and didn't
want to push it. They were going to need all the rest that they could
get up for their trip to Detroit in the next three days. Besides if
he was out too late that future wife of his might not like that much.
Boy was he psychic or what? You'll see. Anyways after Justin's 100th
dance or what felt like his hundredth dance he was much convinced by
the guys that he should call it a night. Held up by Chris and Joey,
they helped his drunk duff off the plush chair he sat in and slowly
out of the club/bar they attended. Everything just happened in slow
motion, maybe he didn't really understand what was happening all the
while until he sat in the cold lonely basement looking at the ring
that once sat on Kristina's finger.
"Dude you had way too much to drink. You reek of liquor and weed,
maybe you should sleep in the guest room tonight or something so you
don't burn Kristina's nostrils."
"Shut the @#%$ up Joey." Everyone began to laugh. Justin more so. He
was so drunk and high that someone could've farted and it would've
been the funniest thing in the world. But Justin's laughter ceased
when he looked a little further down the street. Was he seeing
things? Nah that couldn't be.
"Man is that Kristina?" J.C. asked. What was she doing out this late?
And who was that she was with? Justin managed to pulled away from the
guys and walk towards them.
"I had a great night, I'm glad you stopped by."
"Good, good, don't forget I put my number on that napkin, don't
forget to call alright?"
"Alright I promise" Kristina smiled.
"Come on, give us a cuddle" he smiled. Kristina reached in and gave
him a hug so tight that Justin could feel her squeezing him. His
blood was reaching its boiling point. Wait scratch that, it reached
its boiling point when he reached over and kissed her on the cheek.
Getting closer, Justin's mind blew up from who was with her. It was
Robbie Williams! What the @#%$ was Robbie Williams doing there?!
Kristina told him that she was having a bachelorette party but was
just supposed to be like cookies and orange juice. So what the hell
was this all about?!
"So this is how you spend your last night of freedom?!" Kristina and
Robbie broke from their hug and looked over to Justin. Why did it
seem like every time she was in the vicinity of another man friend or
not he was there to rear his jealous head?
"Justin I thought you were with the guys."
"Just like you'd want me to be huh?" You could smell every illegal
narcotic off of Justin just by standing a mere few feet away from him
and that wasn't sitting real well with Kristina.
"Justin, have you been smoking weed?"
"And if I have? I think its interesting how you were supposed to have
your party tonight yet I find you here with Robbie @#%$ Williams
at 3 in the morning conveniently meeting each other. What the @#%$ is
that?"
"Justin you need to calm down."
"No, I'm not @#%$ calming down!"
"We had dinner together, nothing more nothing less." Why did Robbie
have to say that, it was like adding fuel to the fire.
"We had dinner together, nothing more nothing less" Justin said
mocking his British accent. "Shut the @#%$ up, no one's talking to
you, I'm talking to her."
"She has a name."
"Yeah and I bet you was ready to it call out all night wasn't ya?
British @#%$."
"Justin!!" Justin mixing alcohol, weed and anger was night a force to
be reckoned with. It seemed as if it made some chemical in his mind
jump to conclusions that were simply not true.
"Don't give me that Justin crap! You've had a crush on this man since
the day you were conceived and next thing I know I find you here at
some restaurant giving him hugs and kisses what's up that? I thought
you were supposed to have your bachlorette party tonight too and last
time I checked that only consisted of cookies and orange juice, not
hooking it up with some unsuccessful singer."
"I'll have you know I've sold more albums worldwide than you will in
a life time."
"Well you don't sale here and that's all that matters."
"Look I don't have to take this, I'm out of here."
"Fine go, take ya ass back across the pond and take your skank with
you." Kristina's mouth dropped open. Why did it always have to come
back to this? This incessant argument about her cheating on him when
it simply wasn't true! They already argued about it about 3 times in
the year that they were together and none of it was true. It was as
if the alcohol, weed and angry unleashed a chemical in Justin's head
to jump to conclusions about everything. And it didn't help that any
man she was in the vicinity of 2 feet made him think everything. But
this took the cake, skank? Did he just call her a skank?! She was at
a lost for words…AGAIN! Seemed as if he got her to that point plenty
of time under the influence. She knew this wasn't the real Justin but
right now she didn't care who was the real Justin because that hurt.
She said nothing, just gave off this little laugh confusing everyone.
The guys had now came over after watching the debacle from down the
way to catch the end part. Kristina was mad, who wouldn't be after
being called that? Slowly she took the wedding ring off her left
finger and placed it in his hand.
"By all means let me prevent you from marrying a skank." He wasn't
sure how it happened but everything came flooding back. What you ask,
his sanity. Kristina would never cheat on him!! What was wrong with
him?! But it was too late because from a distance was the yellow
hummers taillights driving away. Robbie was gone as well. Later he
found out 10 minutes had passed before he spoke.
"What have I done?"
*******************
"Did you try her two way?"
"Everything, two way, cell, ash, dez, hell even Krystal no one has
heard from her......do you think she's with Robbie?"
"Don't even go there man, don't even."
"I know, @#%$!" Justin yelled, throwing the pillow on the other side
of the room. He had been trying to get in contact with Kristina for
the longest since she left but no one knew where she was. He didn't,
none of her friends, none of his. He @#%$ up, plain and simple. Why
was it that he continuously blamed her for cheating? He knew in his
heart that she wouldn't so why keep going back on that? He couldn't
even sit in their room or the living room because everything was
about them. Pictures, mementos from trips, Paris, Michigan,
Tennessee, anything reminded him of the two of them. Justin opted to
sit in the basement to get away from it all. He sat by the phone
waiting for her, nothing. Now it was 7 in the morning and she still
hadn't called. Was she in trouble? What if she was driving and drove
into a ditch or something worse? She had recently got off the
medicine for the car accident, could there be complications from
that? Justin's mind ran a million miles thinking of where she could
be? Justin stared at the ring that she gave him back. He @#%$ up
big time. How could he call her a skank?! What was the saying loose
lips sunk ships? Oh yeah that's how he felt right now. Their wedding
was now in two days, if there was even one. Hell he wouldn't even
marry himself after that one. Kristina took a deep breath before
stopping her car. Justin was home but he was usually knocked out at
this time. She'd just go to the guest room to grab some clothes and
leave. Kristina made sure to pull the door up softly so Justin
couldn't hear her. Yeah too bad that plan didn't work. He heard her
car pull up from the basement and went Speedy Gonzales up the steps.
When Kristina turned around there was Justin standing 2 feet behind
her. She was a little startled by his closeness. He looked horrible,
his eyes were bloodshot from the mixtures of alcohol, weed and crying
and the bags under his eyes would make an old woman more confident in
herself.
"Kristina" he whispered. She just couldn't do it, she couldn't look
at him anymore. Paying the slightest attention to him she tried to
walk around him and upstairs but he snatched her up in his
arms. "Please let me talk to you."
"No let me go!"
"Please!"
"Justin stop! Let me go!" They fought awhile with each other. Justin
had a death grip on her and wasn't planning on letting her go unless
she listened to what he had to say. Fighting against him was becoming
futile. A stream of tears were coming down Justin's face. No matter
how much she tried to get out of his hold he wasn't letting go. They
were screaming at the top of their lungs now, making their throats
burn. He couldn't do this anymore. Justin dropped to his knees and
held onto Kristina's waist preventing her to leave again.
"Please, please don't leave me. I love you, I love you so much."
"Justin please, just leave me alone."
"I didn't---I didn't mean what I said. I love you, I think the world
of you, you are my soul mate, please baby."
"I can't keep doing this Justin. You have no trust, no trust in me
and that's not to type of man I want to marry no matter how much I
love you."
"I trust you."
"No, no you don't. You're always thinking that I'm cheating on you
and I'm not! Do you think I can put up with this for the rest of our
lives? I can't and I won't Justin. I won't." Kristina pried Justin's
hands from away from her waist with all her strength and headed out
of the living room.
"Britney cheated on me." Those little words stopped Kristina dead in
her tracks. Was this the reason he was acting this way?
"So the Cry me a river video was true?" she asked with her back still
turned.
"Yes….she cheated on me almost the entire time we were together with
Wade. I thought dude was my best friend and--" It was going to take
Justin's all to finish this story. It was the first time that he had
told anyone since it happened. "And I caught them when I came to
surprise her when I was on vacation."
"I'm sorry to hear that" she said nonchalantly but deep down she was
hurting for him. From what she could tell he really loved her and
that's how she repaid him?
"That's not the worst."
"Justin I really have to go--"
"She had an abortion." OK that was it!! Quickly she spun around and
looked at Justin. Sadness was written all over his face while shock
was written all over hers.
"SHE WHAT?!"
"She was cheating on me, I thought it was Wade's but it was mine. It
killed me. I was young but I would love nothing more than to be a
father. I would've loved that child more than anything and--and"
Justin didn't have to say anymore, Kristina came over and wrapped her
arms around him.
"I'm so sorry babe, I'm sorry."
"I don't mean to be the way I am but my jealously seems to rear its
ugly head at the worst moment."
"And it doesn't help the situation when you're intoxicated."
"I know, I know."
"But listen to me ok?" Justin's blue eyes connected with her
brown. "I would never, ever, ever do anything like that to you,
never. Do you hear me?"
"Yes."
"NEVER, I love you too much. I don't know how many times I have to
tell you that I would never cheat on you I love you too much."
"I know I do. I trust you more than I trust myself you've gotta
believe me."
"You make it hard to do that when you're constantly doubting me."
"I will stop, I'll do whatever it takes. Counseling, talking to a
priest anything."
"Ok….ok."
"Thank you" Justin murmured in the crook of her neck. "I guess I'd
better go call everyone."
"Why?"
"To postpone the wedding."
"We're not postponing anything." Ok Justin was totally hearing things
or was he? Did he hear right? Justin pulled away and looked at
Kristina's.
"Are--are you sure?"
"I'm sure?" Justin held Kristina even tighter. He felt her flinch and
let her go. "What's wrong?" Kristina motioned her head towards her
arm. There was a big bruise from where Justin was holding her
hard. "Oh babe I'm so sorry…..I'm sorry."
"Its ok, it'll heal."
"I should've never held you that hard."
"Look Justin it'll heal ok? Forget it, put my ring back on." Justin
reached into his pocket pulled the ring out. He placed the ring back
on her finger and kissed her hand. No one could love Justin like
Kristina did and from that moment that happened it made all more
clearer that she was the one for him.
